2.13. Creating Provisioning Templates
A provisioning template defines the way Satellite Server installs an operating system on a host. Use this procedure to create a new provisioning template.
Procedure
- In the Satellite web UI, navigate to Hosts > Provisioning Templates and click Create Template.
- In the Name field, enter a name for the provisioning template.
- Fill in the rest of the fields as required. The Help tab provides information about the template syntax and details the available functions, variables, and methods that can be called on different types of objects within the template.
For CLI Users
-
Before you create a template with the CLI, create a plain text file that contains the template. This example uses the
~/my-templatefile. Create the template using the
hammer template createcommand and specify the type with the--typeoption:hammer template create --name "My Provisioning Template" \ --file ~/my-template --type provision --organizations "My_Organization" \ --locations "My_Location"
# hammer template create --name "My Provisioning Template" \ --file ~/my-template --type provision --organizations "My_Organization" \ --locations "My_Location"Copy to Clipboard Copied! Toggle word wrap Toggle overflow
